Novostrana (Discontinued Version)
Mar 17, 2008 Demo 2 commentsThis is a version of the game that we are no longer working on (although we are still working on the project). This is for demonstration purposes only....
"Outcast from a land you never loved. Prosecuted for a crime you never committed. False accusations, false hope and false beliefs lead you on in Novostrana. For your never ending quest to clear your name, save your love and return to that land that is rightfully yours."

Novostrana aims to be a highly detailed game with a large game world where you are not funneled down one path, but given a choice. Although much is likely to change during the development process (it has already changed greatly from the original idea), the following is a plan of the kind of thing we aim to end up with:
This is quite a large project, so we can't really say when it will be released until we are closer to completion. However, we are actively working on it and you can find a previous but unfinished incarnation of the game in the downloads section. However, other than demonstrating one or two of the ideas mentioned above it may not bear any resemblance to the finished game.
We're sorry, but no images, videos or audio files have been added to this gallery.

Well, better late than never I suppose. We're restarting Novostrana almost from scratch. Although this may sound like a major setback, I don't think it is. I'm rebuilding the engine to be more focused on what it needs to do and have less of the unnecessary and framerate consuming "frills". Sofar, this has been successful with a noticeable framerate improvement and has also made the game potentially more enjoyable with the addition of features which allow the player to approach the game with different play styles, ranging a fighting character to a stealthy character.
We also have a new plot under development which looks like it could be fairly epic! :)
Additionally, we have new team members including Rybo5000 and steelx.

i downloaded the first version i have to say you made great game i mostly hate games made with rpg maker xp bud i liked to play this one.
keep up the good work.
Isn't RPG maker considered an engine? I'm just assuming that's being used after looking at the screenshots.
It is, but as far as I'm aware it's not been put on the site yet. I don't want to add it myself because I don't know enough about adding an engine.
Also, I've modified the way the engine works quite a bit.
Thanks! However, I have redone some of the maps which means that the two Oldgrange screenshots no-longer resemble what's in the game. I've redone the market so it is a lot bigger with lots of market stalls and I am currently in the process of turning Oldgrange West into the Commercial District of Oldgrange.
Don't worry, the graphics I'm using are still prettymuch the same, though.
The best 2D game i have seen so far
No. It's a single player game.
BTW, new demo being released soon.
Oh nice keep up the work!
This won't be online or a MMO?
